Interestingly, Brislin is in a somewhat similar situation, to me anyway. He first came on my radar touring with Yes on their Symphonic tour years ago. He covered parts originally played by Kaye, Wakeman, and Moraz, each fully respectful of the source material, and overall just did a great job. I've heard some of his solo stuff, and he's worked with a number of other legacy acts. He's the real reason why I checked out the new album. I liked what he and Zak did together, and as I said, it would now appear to fall to him, unless Kansas can pull another rabbit out of a hat.
